Definitions

  • the present invention is generally in the field of tissue engineering, and more specifically is a means for obtaining stem cells for seeding onto scaffolding for regeneration or repair of tissue, bone and other organs.
  • Human stem cells are totipotential or pluripotential precursor cells capable of generating a variety of mature human cell lineages. This ability serves as the basis for the cellular differentiation and specialization necessary for organ and tissue development. Recent success at transplanting sucn stem cells have provided new clinical tools to reconstitute and/or supplement the bone marrow after myeloablation due to disease, exposure to toxic chemical or radiation.
  • stem cells can be employed to repopulate many, if not all, tissues and restore physiologic and anatomic functionality.
  • Evidence to date indicates that multipotent or pluripotent stem cells are directed to differentiate into specific mature cell lineages based on the physical and biochemical environment that they are delivered. There is also evidence that these cells can migrate from normal to abnormal or defective tissues and repopulate those areas in a very focused and specific manner.
  • stem cells in tissue engineering, gene therapy and cell therapeutics is also advancing rapidly.
  • embryonic stem cells embryonic germ cells, adult stem cells or other committed stem cells or progenitor cells are known.
  • Certain stem cells have not only been isolated and characterized but have also been cultured under conditions to allow differentiation to a limited extent.
  • Tissue engineering has therefore directed attention at growing component tissues and then assembling those components into useful structures.
  • Cadaveric solid organs are processed to remove all living cellular components yet preserve the underlying extracellular matrix scaffold in preparation for the implantation of allogeneic stem cells which repopulate the three-dimensional organ scaffold and restore normal anatomic and physiologic function for the purpose of organ transplantation.
  • the cells are obtained from placental tissue.
  • the method for the processing of cadaveric solid organs selectively depletes the cellular components of the organ while preserving the native biochemical and 3-dimensional architecture of said organ.
  • the resulting organ scaffold or 'template' is then implanted with genotype- specific, living multi-potent stem cells which are delivered by intraparenchymal injection or through the organ's vascular tree.
  • the repopulation of the organ scaffold takes place under environmentally-controlled culture conditions providing immersion in and perfusion with tissue culture media formulated to deliver the optimal nutrient and metabolic levels necessary to sustain the organ, while simulating those biomechanical forces found in vivo.
  • the system monitors the physiologic and metabolic state of the organ during repopulation and renovation and adjusts conditions as needed to maintain the optimal steady state. Repopulated organs can then be maintained under these support conditions until such time that they can be tested and transplanted.
  • the present invention relates to methods of manufacturing a tissue or organ in vivo.
  • the methods of the invention encompass using embryonic-like stem cells obtained from a placenta which has been treated to remove residual cord blood to seed a matrix and cultured under the appropriate conditions to allow the stem cells to differentiate and populate the matrix.
  • the tissues and organs obtained by the methods of the invention may be used for a variety of purposes, including research and therapeutic purposes.
  • embryonic-like stem cells are obtained from a placenta which has been exsanguinated and perfused for a period of at least two to twenty four hours following expulsion from the uterus to remove all residual cells.
  • the exsanguinated placenta is then cultured under the appropriate conditions to allow for the production of endogenous stem cells originating from the placenta.
  • the methods of the present invention relate to the use of embryonic-like stem cells which have been originated from a placenta to seed a matrix.
  • the embryonic-like stem cells may be characterized by a number of methods, including but not limited to, immunochemistry, and the presence of particular cell surface markers.
  • Preferred stem cells to be used in accordance with the present invention may be identified by the presence of the following cell surface markers: CD 10+, CD29+, CD34-, CD44+, CD45-, CD54+, CD90+, SH2+, SH3+, SH4+, SSEA3-, SSEA4-, OCT- 4+, and APC- ⁇ +.
  • the stem cells may be differentiated along specific cell lineages, including adipogenic, chondrogenic, osteogenic, neurogenic and hepatogenic lineages.
  • it may be preferable to stimulate differentiation of embryonic-like stem cells to a particular lineage prior to seeding the cells to a particular matrix.
  • cultured placentas may be stimulated to produce cells of a particular lineage, by introducing into the placenta exogenous cells or tissues of the desired lineage.
  • the cultured placenta may be stimulated to produce hepatogenic stem cells by introducing exogenous hepatogenic cells or tissue into the placenta.
  • the present invention also relates to the use of the cultured placenta as a bioreactor to stimulate the propagation of embryonic-like stem cells of a particular lineage.
  • the cultured placenta can be stimulated to produce embryonic-like stem cells which have become committed to a particular lineage, including but not limited to, adipogenic, chondrogenic, osteogenic, neurogenic and hapatogic lineages.
  • the cultured placenta may be stimulated to produce cells of a particular lineage, by exposing the cultured placenta to exogenous cells or tissues of the desired lineage.
  • the placenta may be exposed to liver cells.
  • liver cells are introduced into the placenta by any number of methods, including injecting the liver cells as a single cell suspension or as islands of cells into the vasculature or directly into the placenta.
  • the placenta would be perfused in accordance with the methods described herein to allow for the recovery of hepatic stem cells from the placenta.
  • Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view of the cannulation of the vein and artery of a placenta to perfuse the placenta and then collect the perfusate.
  • Figures 2a-e are schematics showing the collection, clamping, perfusion, collection and storage of a drained and perfused placenta.

  • embryonic stem cell refers to a cell that is derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst (e.g., a 4- to 5-day-old human embryo) and that is pluripotent.
  • embryonic-like stem cell refers to a cell that is not derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst.
  • an "embryonic-like stem cell” may also be referred to as a "placental stem cell.”
  • An embryonic-like stem cell may be a pluripotent cell, a multipotent cell, or a committed progenitor cell.
  • embryonic-like stem cells derived from the placenta may be collected from the isolated placenta once it has been exsanguinated and perfused for a period of time sufficient to remove residual cells.
  • exsanguinated refers to the removal and/or draining of substantially all cord blood from the placenta.
  • exsanguination of the placenta can be achieved by, for example, but not by way of limitation, draining, gravity induced efflux, massaging, squeezing, pumping, etc.
  • Exsanguination of the placenta may further be achieved by perfusing, rinsing or flushing the placenta with a fluid that may or may not contain agents, such as anticoagulants, to aid in the exsanguination of the placenta.
  • agents such as anticoagulants
  • perfuse refers to the act of pouring or passaging a fluid over or through an organ or tissue, preferably the passage of fluid through an organ or tissue with sufficient force or pressure to remove any residual cells, e.g., non-attached cells from the organ or tissue.
  • perfusate refers to the fluid collected following its passage through an organ or tissue.
  • exogenous cell refers to a "foreign" cell, i.e., a heterologous cell (i.e., a "non-self cell derived from a source other than the placental donor) or autologous cell (i.e., a "self cell derived from the placental donor) that is derived from an organ or tissue other than the placenta.

  • the term “multipotent cell” refers to a cell that has the capacity to grow into any of subset of the mammalian body's approximately 260 cell types. Unlike a pluripotent cell, a multipotent cell does not have the capacity to form all of the cell types.
  • pluripotent cell refers to a cell that has complete differentiation versatility, i.e., the capacity to grow into any of the mammalian body's approximately 260 cell types.
  • a pluripotent cell can be self- renewing, and can remain dormant or quiescent within a tissue.
  • a totipotent cell e.g., a fertilized, diploid egg cell
  • an embryonic stem cell cannot usually form a new blastocyst.
  • progenitor cell refers to a cell that is committed to differentiate into a specific type of cell or to form a specific type of tissue.
  • stem cell refers to a master cell that can reproduce indefinitely to form the specialized cells of tissues and organs.
  • a stem cell is a developmentally pluripotent or multipotent cell.
  • a stem cell can divide to produce two daughter stem cells, or one daughter stem cell and one progenitor ("transit") cell, which then proliferates into the tissue's mature, fully formed cells.
  • totipotent cell refers to a cell that is able to form a complete embryo (e.g., a blastocyst).
  • a xenogeneic (or allogeneic) tissue matrix is processed to remove native cells and other antigens and cellular debris from the decellularized tissue matrix, and, optionally, treated to inhibit generation of new immunological sites.
  • this tissue matrix can then be treated with the cellular adhesion factors described below to enhance attachment of cells to the matrix during the process of repopulating the tissue matrix with such new cells.
  • Different properties of the resulting matrix can be obtained through the selection of cell types used to repopulate the natural tissue matrices, such as the ability to synthesize proteins otherwise atypical for the natural tissue at the site of implantation or unique to certain age groups.
  • hybrid grafts combine the structural advantages of bioprosthetic grafts with the functional and regenerative capabilities of allografts as well as display attenuated or no immune response, limited propensity to calcify, and little stimulation of thromboembolism.
  • the initial transplant tissue or organ may be of non-human origin. These tissues or organs may be obtained at approved slaughterhouses from animals fit for human consumption or from herds of domesticated animals maintained for the purpose of providing these tissues or organs. The tissues or organs are handled in a sterile manner, and any further dissection of the tissue or organs is carried out under aseptic conditions.
  • this tissue may be sterilized by incubating it in a sterile buffered nutrient solution containing antimicrobial agents, for example an antibacterial, an antifungal, or a sterilant compatible with the transplant tissue.
  • antimicrobial agents for example an antibacterial, an antifungal, or a sterilant compatible with the transplant tissue.
  • the sterilized transplant tissue may then be cryopreserved for further processing at a later time or may immediately be further processed according to the next steps of this process including a later cryopreservation of the tissue matrix or other tissue products of the process.
  • the tissue is first decellularized. Native viable cells as well as other cellular and acellular structures or components which may elicit an adverse immune response by the implant recipient are removed.
  • Native viable cells as well as other cellular and acellular structures or components which may elicit an adverse immune response by the implant recipient are removed.
  • Several means of reducing the viability of native cells in tissues and organs are known, including physical, chemical, and biochemical methods. See, e.g. U.S. Pat. No. 5,192,312 (Orton) which is incorporated herein by reference. Such methods may be employed in accordance with the process described herein.
  • the decellularization technique employed should not result in gross disruption of the anatomy of the transplant tissue or substantially alter the biomechanical properties of its structural elements.
  • the treatment of the tissue to produce a decellularized tissue matrix should also not leave a cytotoxic environment that mitigates against subsequent repopulation of the matrix with cells that are allogeneic or autologous to the recipient.
  • Cells and tissues that are allogeneic to the recipient are those that originate with or are derived from a donor of the same species as the recipient.
  • Autologous cells or tissues are those that originate with or are derived from the recipient.
  • Physical forces for example the formation of intracellular ice, can be used to decellularize transplant tissues.
  • vapor phase freezing slow rate of temperature decline
  • rapid freezing processes in the absence of cryoprotectant, may result in tissue disruption such as the cracking of heart valve conduits.
  • Colloid-forming materials may be added during freeze-thaw cycles to alter ice formation patterns in the tissue.
  • Polyvinylpyrrolidone (10% w/v) and dialyzed hydroxyethyl starch (10% w/v) may be added to standard cryopreservation solutions (DMEM, 10% DMSO, 10% fetal bovine serum) to reduce extracellular ice formation while permitting formation of intracellular ice. This allows a measure of decellularization while providing the tissue matrix with some protection from ice damage.
  • DMEM standard cryopreservation solutions
